All Artists Are Welcome

Each year applications are received from every region of the United
States, as well as from other countries all over the world, to fill a
limited number of spaces. Your artistic potential, academic performance,
and personal commitment are of primary importance in your application.
There is not, however, one single factor that will determine admission
to the College of Art and Design. We consider each applicant's unique background and
accomplishments. We encourage applications from all students interested
in pursuing studies in the visual arts.
